SEMI-ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE MORMON CHURCH.
The semi-annual conference of the Mormon church began this morning. The attendance was not as large as usual. Different elders have spoken, all to the glorification of the Mormon church, but generally the language and sentiment were quite moderate. One of the apostles re­-marked significantly, that he was willing, and so were the great bulk of the Latter - Day Saints, to obey every good and constitutional law enacted by the government of our country. With the laws, however, which were designed to infringe upon his or their rights as free men he could not say quite so much. It is expected that Brigham Young, if able, will speak on Sunday. It is rumored that George Q. Cannon, editor of the News, and one of the apostles, will be arrested on the charge of lewd and lascivious cohabitation with women.
